Welcome Summer!

It is here! We can hardly believe it, summer break has arrived. Excited doesn't even begin to explain how we feel. Bring on the sun and fun! 

This is how we welcomed in the break, picture taken at 9:30 am on 5/28/2010

He did it!

He did it! Preston made it through Kindergarten! It wasn't easy, but he completed it. Reading, writing and concentrating are not his favorite things. He likes to write his numbers backwards and flip d's for b's, but on his end of the year test he wrote ALL his numbers correctly and read his book like a champ. It was a huge accomplishment. I was so proud of him. We both know that 1st Grade isn't going to be easy, but with a little extra effort he can do it!

Happy Birthday Landon!

Landon is 8! I can't believe it. He had a super day filled with a donut for breakfast, a huge blowup water slide, cake, friends, family, gifts and at least 4 hours spent at the park. It was lots of fun, I hope he remembers it for a long time.

 I am so proud of the boy he is growing up to be. Just the other day he spent all his "Cougar Bucks" on a little toy purse for his sister. I couldn't believe it when he got in the car after school, he had been saving those "Bucks" since January. (It is the way his teacher rewards her students.) It took all 100 that he had. When he gave it to his sister, she was so happy and I was so proud. I love you Landon, Happy 8th Birthday!

Newest Player for the Sliderzz

A few weeks ago the Sliderzz played in the Super League. Right at the start of the second game Josh got beaned in the eye by a pitch. It created the biggest goose egg right over his left eye. Needless to say he was in no form to finish playing the rest of the game. They only had 9 players so if someone wasn't there to fill in quick they would have to take an automatic out, and there would be a hole in the outfield. So... guess who was called up from the sand box?! Preston! He wasn't to sure if he even wanted to play after looking at Josh's eye, but he ran like a champ to the outfield in his shorts and tennis shoes. He stayed into the game out there, to bad nothing was hit to him. He got up to hit twice and struck out both times, but I have to say he didn't seem intimidated. I think I would have been if I was him, the Sliderzz were playing 9 year olds and he is only 6 (and I might add not a real big 6 year old either! :)) The Sliderzz did lose the game, but Preston didn't care he was just excited to be apart of the team. Way to go Petey, you were awesome!

Little League

Preston's Coach Pitch/T-Ball Little League Season came to a close. Watching him play was pure joy! He loves to play especially when he hits Home Runs! He has a great swing and is really growing a passion for the game. It seems the last month whenever you see him around the house he has his mitt on with a tennis ball in it. When he asks his dad to play catch, I grin. It looks like we are going to have two baseball players in the Frei Family, and that couldn't make me happier.

Mother's Day

This is one of my favorite days of the year. My kids tryed hard not to fight, Gavin cooked and cleaned it up. I was able to rest and read cute cards from my kids and a really nice on from Gavin. I opened presents, like mini spatula's, tooth pick shakers, pictures framed in craft foam, and homemade book marks. I listened to my boys sing in church and then received hand prints that I will cherish forever.  I was able to visit with the Mom's in my life as well as Grandma's.

 Could a day get any better? I don't think so.
